are watermelons, nuts, dates, oranges,
olives, lines, lemons and various kinds of
semi-trOpical fruits which ripened in open
air in December Washington Porter,
the great fruit shipper declared on
the opening night that the fine oranges
shown were equal to any produced in the
world. Placer COunty's display of raisins
furnishes striking illustration of the
causes that are driving imported raisins
out Of the market. Included in the exhibit
are ten boxes of raisins, similar in appear
ance. Nine boxes are California raisins.
The tenth one is the best imported five
crown DeIesa, from Spain, and experts are
challenged to pick 1t out. There are also
shown some tineraisins faced by machinery,
far superior in appearance 10 any
imported. article. The fruits exhibited
are from that section of the State north OF
San Francisco Sacramento is the shipping
point for the entire section. As illustrat
ing the growth Of the raisin industry, it is
stated that Sacramento shipped in 1884
S2,2O pounds Of rasins, and III 1855, l,lG2,

ATLANTA, Jan. 1.-Thursday. John Harde
man. a well to do colorcd man of Cobb
County, came TO this city in search OF the
body of his son Charles, which had been
stolen from the Smyrna graveyard the day
before. He was given police escort TO eX
anime the yats of three medical colleges
here. He was unsuccessful in his search,
but greater sensation lay behind. There
was found in one college seven bodies, IN
another four and in another the half OF one
body. Out of the twelve thus exposed to
the officers view, there were only two
who he did not know in life. One bodywas
that of married lady who was buried
within the past month with great pomp
Another was that Of person whom tho
officer had seen in perfect health but a
week before, and of whose death he had not
heard Several were of persons generally
known in the city All this goes to prove
that grave robbing goes on right mere
where least expected. An effort is beng
made to keep the disclosures secret, as a
general knowledge of them would arouse
popular Indignation and lead to serious con
sequences.
